Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House.
Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen.
Stay loud.

Senator Schumer you failed in your leadership, as evidenced by the EIGHT who voted with the Republicans. STEP DOWN NOW.
@schumer.senate.gov @hassan.senate.gov @shaheen.senate.gov @cortezmasto.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov
Angus King
@fetterman.senate.gov
@kaine.senate.gov
@rosen.senate.gov
The fact these 8 went above Schumer means this Dem leader has no leadership any more.
EIGHT Senate Democrats have voted to advance the funding measure so far after the deal was reached:

Cortez Masto
Durbin
Fetterman
Hassan
Kaine
King
Rosen
Shaheen

If the existing 52 Republicans hold, that's 60 — enough to advance this agreement. Final vote still to come.

Donald Trump said ICE raids haven't gone far enough.

Kristi Noem said no citizens have been detained in these raids.

But we know the truth. Because we have story after heartbreaking story that proves otherwise.

Listen to these brave Americans in their own words.

Let me put this as simply as possible: If the 60 Minutes editorial team cuts out most of their interview with Trump to make him look his best, and he still comes across as completely demented, then it is extremely likely that Trump actually is completely demented.

"Factchecking Trump on '60 Minutes'"

In today's 'First Draft' morning newsletter from Zeteo, I counted and debunked at least *17 obvious, brazen lies* that the president told CBS's Norah O'Donnell, and that she just let slide:

Today enrollment for health insurance opens and millions of Americans including breast cancer survivors will see their premiums double.

The President needs to come to the table and work with us to extend the health care tax credits so Americans don’t lose their care.

I assume it was the pending lawsuits and not a crisis of conscience that prompted the pivot.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE.

A platform built to connect creators and listeners is helping an authoritarian regime build up its secret police force.

But we’re not going to idly accept that. We’re going to make Spotify listen: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

Just a reminder: senate republicans have “gone nuclear” twice in the last two months to ram through over 150 Trump appointees. Now they’re acting like they just learned about it.
